Issue with the 'Trick or Treat' Cloth!

I was able to get enough cloth of a certain color I was wanting,so I could make a robe. I made one and it came out as death-robe grey in color. For all of you that have spent time collecting the cloth to make a nice looking robe or whatever. Save your cloth until later. It may turn grey when you craft the clothing.

Might want to check your "use material color" box. Ive made like 40 articles of clothing out of it, all came out the right color.

Get on your Tailor and go Trick or Treating.... Take off all your armor and clothes and start making clothes, Shirt, Ninja Skirt, Ninja Pants, Fur Boots, Robe, Cloak and whatever else you can get on...... remember what you made.....

Get a macro set up to use your trusty scissors.

Go out Trick or Treating somewhere with loads of NPC's .... wait for the little buggers to "Trick" you and change you a nifty color.

Quick grab those scissors and cut up all your clothes! Better be quick the change don't last long!

Another suggestion, perhaps a little late in the game, is if you use the Classic Client and UOA, set yourself an "undress" hotkey, wear only the clothes you want to cut, and then set your undress bag as a recycle bag (don't remember their exact name, but the ones that let you recycle stuff with a right click and menu select). When you change, hit your hotkey, and then quickly right click and select "Select All" (top menu choice) and it cuts it all for you.

For me, I found the sweetspot was three items, and on my gargish crafter using a regular Robe, Cloth Wing Armor, and Cloth Chest, I was pulling 20 cloth per trick or treat. Not sure how other methods worked for others, but that worked for me.
